According to legend, in 1380, on the way to the Kulikovo battle, Prince Dimitri stopped for a halt (for reassurance) fifteen miles from Moscow. Here he saw over a pine tree an icon of St. Nicholas. After the prayer of the prince, boyars and soldiers, the icon itself descended into the hands of Demetrius. The prince exclaimed: "All this has sinned his heart" .
